​Texting 207-691-5407 often works better when I am out on the water; voice reception can be spotty and disruptive to passengers. I may not check voicemail until the end of the day (often 11pm or so) when I am sailing all day. Summer is wicked busy for me, but I want to get you out on the water.

I don't check my email while I am out sailing, which is almost every day in the summer. I check it at night once I am back home, or maybe in between trips. Sometimes, I'm so busy sailing the boat, I can't answer the phone. My wife, Amanda, answers emails pretty steady, when she can. Our toddler helps her the best he can, and even with that help, you're likely to hear back from Amanda rapidly. If it's today or tomorrow you are inquiring about, call me.

Sometimes I cannot respond to emails until we get the boat & my kids & myself each fed and the boat & young ones to bed. Sometimes Amanda is busy with shoreside logistics preparing our lobsterbakes and cheese platters or she's with our son, Silas. We try to reply as soon as possible, usually the same day.

In summer, when sailing, I am the Captain, the office staff, maintenance man and dishwasher. So if you call and leave a message, and I somehow don't manage to get back to you in a timely fashion, please do try again, or send an email.

My wife, Amanda, helps with the communications and scheduling, so if a sweet, competent lady calls you back (from a different number) while I'm out sailing, lucky you!​She also answers a lot of email inquiries.
